Language of Eternity

A Translation of “Language of Eternity”

Do you still keep your head above the Star?
Beyond this sky, there is another sky
Still full of stars…
Beyond that sky, there is still another sky,
Full of words and fairies…
The language of eternity is this very amalgamation of gesture and smile.
Why are you still talking about your last night’s dream with the mirror?
Mirror is the very interpretation of our simple intentions
Believe it, believe it, believe it ...

Gate of the Year

Gate of the Year

I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year:
"Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown."
And he replied,
"Go into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God.
That shall be to you better than light and safer than a known way!"
So I went forth and finding the Hand of God.
Trod gladly into the nightHe led me towards the hills.
And the breaking of day in the lone east.
So heart be still!
What need our human life to know.
If God hath comprehension?
In all the dizzy strife of things,
Both high and low,God hideth his intention.

Will

And the will therein lieth, which dieth not.
Who knoweth the mysteries of the will, with its vigor? For God is but a great will pervading all things by nature of its intentness.
Man doth not yield himself to the angels, nor unto death utterly, save only through theweakness of his feeble will.

--Joseph Glanvill.
